How does the length of a kite's tail effect the way it flies?
A tail will steady a kite, help stop it from darting around. The longer the tail the more a kite will sit in one place.
Does the tail of kite affect its flight?
Yes - the tail adds stability. Without it - the kite would just spin. The tail makes the bottom of the kite slightly heavier so it flies vertically.
A kite and its tail total 32 feel in length the tail is 18 feet longer than the length of the kites body how long is the kite tail?
Uhhh 14 feet...
Does the design of the tail of its kite affects ITS FLIGHT?
Yes. The pointeir the tail, the more streamlined the kite. Therefore the faster and higher the height travels'
How does the length of the kite tail affect the way it flies?
The tail causes drag and keeps the kite stable. By pulling down, on the part of the kite it is attached to, it keeps it orientated upright and more stable.The longer the tail, the more drag. A short tail, may not be enough in a strong wind to stabilise the kite. A tail that is too long, may cause difficulties in getting it off the ground in a light wind.
A kite and its tail total 32 feet in length. The tail is 18 feet longer than the length of the kite's body. How long is the kite's tail?
We've got the following: x - length of kite's body x + 18 - length of kite's tail x + x + 18 = 32 -> total length of kite plus its tail 2x + 18 = 32 2x = 14 x = 7 -> length of kite's body x + 18 = 25 -> length of kite's tail
Why does a kite have a tail?
So that it can fly better the tail helps the kite balance better as well

Does a kite have to have a tail?

25 feet
Can a rhombus be a kite?
With an adequate tail, a rhombus could be a kite.
What is the end of a kite called?
The end of a kite is called the tail.

Do all kites need a tail to help them fly?
No, some kites fly badly with a tail. The tail add stability to a badly balanced kite but it also adds weight so can drag a gently pulling kite down. Unless a kite is homemade or asymetric in design it should be well balanced. As most kites are now mass produced and quite accurate people mostly use them to look pretty! A few kites (Sodi's) have rope tails to add weight at the base and produce the correct angle of attact to the wind. A looped tail made from a single piece of fabric and attached at two points on the base of the kite is used on some kites such as smaller sleds to add to the lift. Kites such as box kites and tetrahedral kites are stable without tails. The most common kite requiring a tail is the flat diamond kite.
What is the most important part in a kite and why?
Tail, it gives the kite a wait balance
Does a kite fly higher when it is fitted with a long tail or a short tail explain it in scientific method?
Because of high gravity in the sky the kite flys when it is fixed with a log tail.
